. what did they decide? >> the meeting just wrapped up in this building behind me and the board voted unanimously to lay off 111 teachers. take a look at this video. the number was 180 but it was reduced because of teacher retirement among other things. the layoffs go into effect next year for the 2011-2012 school year. the board says it had to layoff teachers because the state continues cutting education funding. at this point, the projected deficit is $11.9 million, but the deficit could increase or decrease depending on whether the governor announces more cuts in education this month. first, we'll hear from a concerned resident who opposes the teacher layoffs, then from

a school board member and from the board presidency. >> i hope you can see your way through the globe and find some magic wand to come up with something -- with something to save these jobs. >> there are people who care very, very much about our students and services. cutting them was not the best circumstances.

teacher layoffs. they can only be used to make school improvements. reggie kumar. >> a 4-year-old boy is dead tonight after being run over by a member of his family. it happened just after noontime near santa rosa. police say the boy was riding a bicycle alongside his uncle's truck. police say the child then swerved into the truck's path and was severely injured. the glen ellen fire chief says rescues tried to save the child. >> we did everything we could to bring him around, but it didn't work. and the child did die. the father was very distraught as you would expect and the mother also. she was very strong, but when they pronounced her child dead, it was -- it was i think a little too much for her. >> police are still

investigating the death, but they say alcohol and drugs do not appear to be a factor. in bis bane, a man was killed after he pulled off on the shoulder of highway one. someone crashed into his car, tossing that man about 75 feet. a federal judge set no bail for a man suspected of trying to enter the cockpit of a plane on saturday. me appeared in court for the first time today. here is more about the suspect and the incident. >> reporter: he displayed little emotion in court. in an argument, the u.s. attorney says that the defendant yelled god is great in arabic several times during the incident, noting that the phrase has been linked with several other terrorist incidents, including the 9/11 terror attacks. the prosecutor said the defendant had no check or carry-

on luggage. he had no keys or cellphone but did have an apple charger. investigators also found several pieces of identification on the suspect, including two new york learner's permits with different addresses and an expired california state i.d. he was carrying $47 in cash and had two checks, both postdated, one for $5,000 made out to cash and another in his name for 8,000-dollar. the details of who wrote the checks was not released. he was allegedly going to stay with his family who according to the prosecution did not know he was coming. kron4 news. >> we also talked with a former police officer who helped to restrain the suspect on that american airlines flight. he told us how he and other passengers took control of the situation. >> even with my earphones on, i heard a scream from behind me and i didn't know what that was, so as i turned, there was a person that was walking past

three very rapidly. he broke into somewhat of a trot and started running and as he did, he yelled allah akbar. i immediately jumped up to pursue the individual. almost immediately there was a number of people up, and when i arrived, they were taking him to the ground. i decided to use a control hold on him. i took off my belt, which i used as a hobble, it's an old- style technique of attaching the person's cuffs to their feet cuffs and that way, we would make sure that he had no way of scaping. >> we talked with the suspect's family members today. they describe him as a regular guy and they don't believe that he had any harmful intentions. well, it has been quite breezy this evening and at this hour, still a little breezy in spots around the bay area.
